In this provocative study John Russell Taylor sets out to re-examine the whole movement of "well made" drama in Britain, from T.W.Robertson to Terence Rattigan and to discover exactly why the compliment became an insult. In the process, new light is thrown on a whole era of British drama.* A NEAR FINE text copy of the 1st/1st with some minor faults in a VG+ protected dust jacket.*
